Here's a use case for non-scaling stroke, a fine idea...
I just demoed that in our map editor. I didn't actually point the
feature out, but it has a non-scaling stroke. It works by by
resetting the stroke width in the css style of the base map group
after each zoom.
A nice feature, it does look good, it would be fine if it was automatic.
At the dawn of time we experimented with the idea of specifying that a
zero stroke width would be a non scaling stroke of width one, but it
failed to impress everyone. This would be better, I scale the strokes
on the sit display to always be 1.5px (in screen coordinates) because
it looks best for the application.
